Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 10/19/2011 01:57 am Hi everyone I have been giving this late Roman from Siscia the peroxide treatment for about a week now, and it has been working well. But now that I have about enough detail to possibly get a positive ID I need some help. Despite the unfortunate scratch on the emperor's face, might you guys be able to tell me who this is and what exactly is being depicted on the reverse? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

SIS in exergue From the bust, I'd have to say RIC 14. Report this Post to the Staff

So I paid $4 for this one. Do you think that I got my money's worth despite the scratch? Well, Even if not due to the damage, it has been fun to revive this coin. Report this Post to the Staff

As for the value, I think you did ok, not like a spectacular deal, but ok. But since you seem to like the coin, and had fun cleaning it up, I think you got your money's worth Report this Post to the Staff
